The Ghost Of Sex And You — Mike & The Mechanics

It was an unbelievable night She was an unremarkable girl You may not call it poetry But it changed my world

It was an unforgettable dawn She was an indisputable fact Even if i could have I might not have it back

It's an unexceptional day She's an unavoidable truth Uncompromised elation Suspended since my youth

It's an unforgivable lie I have nothing in my defence There can be no forgiveness To caution this descent

It wasn't in a dream A film or on tv This was really happening Happening to me Though i may protest Suggest i never knew The ghost comes back to haunt me The ghost of sex and you

I held her hand outside the hotel Kissed her mouth in the back of the car Whether fact or fantasy I knew we'd gone too far

I feel her breath on the back of my neck She's lying naked here on the floor Wrap the sheet around her Disappear beyond the door

It wasn't in a dream A film or on tv This was really happening Happening to me Though i may protest Suggest i never knew The ghost comes back to haunt me The ghost of sex and you

It was an unbelievable night She was an unremarkable girl You may not call it poetry But it changed my world The ghost of sex and you

It was an unforgettable dawn She was an indisputable fact Even if i could have I might not have it back Sex and you

It's an unexceptional day She's an unavoidable truth Uncompromised elation Suspended since my youth Sex and you

It's an unforgivable lie I have nothing in my defence There can be no forgiveness To caution this descent The ghost of sex and you
